TRENTON — It was no secret the Trenton High softball team has gotten better this year. Friday it showed as Trenton downed Hamilton, 3-2, for its second win of the season.

With the victory, Trenton halted a 66-game losing streak against Colonial Valley Conference competition. The last CVC team Trenton beat was Hamilton in 2010.

“It was senior day and the seniors played great,” said Trenton coach Ryan McCamy. “It was a great day for us.”

A big key was the six-hit pitching of Keyonne Ingram, who loaded the bases on three walks in the top of the seventh, but was able to get out of the jam for the win.

“She nearly gave me a heart attack at the end, but Keyonne pitched a great game.” said McCamy.

The big Trenton blow was a two-run homer by standout Deonna Gray in Trenton’s three-run first against Stephanie White (six strikeouts). It was the third home run of the year for Gray. Trenton also got doubles from Lexus Bellamy and Nyeema Woodall.

“I hope these girls don’t celebrate too much,” said McCamy, whose team will be at Ewing Saturday morning in the Mercer County Tournament. “Seriously, I am really proud of them.”
